the things we did at school less than 4 decades ago - we'd all be serving lifetime prison terms these days.
I had an older relative that used to tell me that, verbatim, when I was a kid. I used to carry a pocket knife in grade school (80's) and used it quite a bit.
In the 70's, an electronic kit in a shoebox was a popular toy from Radio Shack. All the kids who got them for Christmas grew up to be engineers and built the internet. The kids who didn't get them grew up to be teachers.
You can find them on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Vintage-...
1) Drones are NOT new. They've been around for about 80 years. Longer depending on your definition.
2) Most countries use drones. You are only reading about the US produced ones. They've been used heavily as far back and including WWII
3) I'm sure spy agencies use cars, cell phones, restaurants and probably social media sites like this one
4) Again, they are not new. Did you know that Marilyn Monroe worked assembling drones in WWII? It's true http://paleofuture.gizmodo.com...
Unfortunately this doesn't carry over well to the second generation according to a friend teacher of mine. Growing up in absolute poverty and/or war and risking your life to get somewhere better instills something that you don't get from watching tv and being surrounded by richer kids with ipads while you are living in a studio apartment with another family or two and eating beans every night.
No, that's narrow thinking in that there's is one way to do things. The real revolution occurs when it becomes inexpensive enough to let the world's billion or so kids start hacking on space projects like they did with computers in the 70's-80's. That's a lot free labor and new ideas rather than the current dozen or so players steeped in legacy thinking. Imagine where cell phones would be today if the PC were never invented.
On my first trip to the UK, I was excited and looking forward to good beer (and Guinness). What was everyone drinking, including the foreigners? Budweiser. But that was 20 years ago, so things might have changed.
Just out of curiosity, what do you need in 27 minutes that can't wait a few hours? I queue up any downloads I need and work on something else until it's finished.
Teamsters could always force a law stating that a human driver must be present in the vehicle at all times ostensibly for safety (but not actually be responsible for anything). Not only that, but because of the additional training involved will deserve higher pay. Truck driver becomes autonomous systems engineering manager.
They don't want maintenance, a car payment, to drive.
Sounds like a lot of computer users. But whenever a company makes a non-reparable cell phone, the internet has a meltdown. Two years ago this happened when a car company was going to produce a car with a sealed engine compartment.

Timothy McVeigh was executed. I'm sure most people had a problem with him.

These are teachers you are talking about, not people who are qualified to know the difference between an LED and explosives.

Wait for artificial wombs. The same people oppose those too.

Not all drones have four propellers. http://xcsoaring.com/
I made the same observation/conclusion when I moved to a really poor area. Just avoiding a few cases of beer a week would be enough to get you 50%.

I easily change 120v to 25,000v in my house daily. Using 100 year old technology. It's trivial to do and I'm sure 800v would be just as easy.

That's how it worked for me. I later went on to college and got a degree in electrical engineering.

Repairing satellites in orbit was a major selling point of the space shuttle. The us spent a few billion $ on Hubble repairs and upgrades.
Autonomous cars are not AI either.

Well, the jwst is a few billion dollars and will be parked n the other side of the moon. And it will be a while before launch costs are $20M.

Humans have a much higher tolerance for error of other humans than machines though.
